" Cory Higgins, Colorado's all-time leading scorer, will fill the Charlotte Bobcats' 15th roster spot.

Higgins is the son of Bobcats president of basketball operations Rod Higgins. Cory Higgins was recently cut by the Denver Nuggets.

At 6-5, Higgins fills what the Bobcats wanted from a fifth guard: A player with the size and skill set to play either guard spot.

"One of the things I pride myself in is playing either position, and more importantly, being able to guard either position,'' Higgins said after practice Sunday night."
